Meshuggah

MeshuggahMy Genre: Technical Experimental Metal What's this?

iTunes Genre: Metal


Who's in the band?

-Jens Kidman on [Vocals].

-Fredrik Thordendal on [Guitar] and [Backing Vocals].

-Tomas Haake on [Drums].

-Mårten Hagström on [Guitar] and [Vocals].

-Dick Lövgren on [Bass].




My Experience:

So Meshuggah is pretty much the most influential metal band to ever exist.

Their use of progressive, technical, and just plain heavy elements, along with crazy time signatures and face ripping vocals are only a small part of their genius.

Ever seen a 4/4 Drum beat mixed over top of a 25/16 Guitar part? Do you even understand what that means? That's Meshuggah for you.

If you love heavy, then Meshuggah is for you. If not, then...well press the back button on your browser because this page is definitely not for you.

I know Meshuggah has definitely influenced some of the music my band writes, and I know that almost any metal band that exists would credit some sort of inspiration to them.

So that means you should at least listen to them.

Do it.




Noticeable Traits:

  • GROOOOOOOOWL
  • Disturbingly complicated Time Signatures
  • Impossible-to-play drum beats (See "Bleed")
  • Work out to this band.

Featured Band:

Gorillaz

Gorillaz is a super classic band, and for a good reason. With some of the best combinations of electronic music, featuring artists from Mos Def, to MF Doom, it's a really incredible band.

Their newest album, "The Fall", was even recording entirely on an iPad! I highly recommend they become an integral part to your music library, and I've been listening to them for the last month straight (Religiously).
